In this week's episode of Change Voices, frayintermedia CEO Paula Fray speaks to Flight Lieutenant Quratulain Fatima, who went from being the first woman in the Pakistan Airforce to actively working to build peace in rural and conflict-ridden regions. She says the absence of violence is not enough to sustain peace - but rather that peace is something which needs to be actively and positively worked for. For this, community and stakeholder involvement is essential. Her role in peacebuilding within the areas she operates is undeniable, even more so as she uses technology to increase the impact of her work. As the co-founder of women4peacetech, she focuses on gender-inclusive development, empowerment through technology and conflict prevention. Peacebuilding is specifically about helping communities resolve their problems before the situation turns violent, and women have an important part to play. This makes her the ideal guest to join the conversation and share her insight about peacebuilding and how technology can be used to do so.You can find more information about the work we do and the @changevoices podcast on our website, frayintermedia.com or on our social media platforms @frayintermedia on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn, where our frayintermedia teams involved in the production of this podcast will be posting regular updates and sharing the lessons as we go along.If you have any specific women in mind that you’d like to hear from or if you want to support our endeavour, please contact Paula directly at pfray@frayintermedia.com or direct message her on social media.
